Speaking of importing and giving the wallet a good vacuum at the same time.

i think it was all a load of shit what Ed went though, getting charged just to move the truck to and from the wash bay,
granted who ever he got it from did not clean it properly but the inspectors must not be to switched on as the cigarette ash tray was full of rubbish and god knows what, a stark contrast to having the inside steam cleaned, the carpets cleaned out.

I worked in container transport for a few years, what I refer to as the armpit of the industry. The wharves will charge for everything including a redirection for a rewash. I hate containers >:(

Some play hard to get

Would love for Paddy to have the Snub-Nose in Dubbo next year! Make that all three Kenworths - the LW924 with the 12V71, the '37 Shovel Nose and the '53 Snub-Nose!

Joe,

The iron lung is ref to the mechanical supercharger fitted on those in the days before turbo technology progressed from theory to practice. This is what it should sound like:

Tatra,

Cannot wait to hear this one in the flesh - thanks for the vid! The engine in that Pete sounds awesome - not deafening like some of those drag trucks!
